**Catching Fire-- Suzanne Collins

October 1st, 2008 The Hunger Games sent out a spark into the world of YA literature. And starting September 1st, 2009, that spark is now Catching Fire and spreading!

Eh? I thought that was pretty clever!

Anyway:

THIS BOOK ROCKS!!! Honestly. Hunger Games fans will not be disappointed.

We are reunited with all our favorite characters-- Katniss, Peeta, Gale, Prim-- and even some of our favorite hunger games contestents are remembered in this book, though they do not appear themselves.

And I will warn you now, that we DO get to experience The Hunger Games again. So once more 24 people will enter the area and fight to the death. Allthough it lacks the strength of the first Hunger Game, it's still extremely intense. The Hunger Games was just so unbelieveably strong that even this book pales in comparision.

All in all, Catching Fire has romance, violence, and a gripping story. I didn't put it down for over 6 hours! I loved it! I'd definitely say that I enjoyed The Hunger Games more, but I liked this maybe one teeny, tiny percent less. Definitely a Squeaky Book.

**Hunger-- Michael Grant




This book is just as wild as the first. More sci-fi, though. I'm gonna keep it short and sweet: this series rocks. They're both about 600 pages long, but I'm enthralled throughout the entire books. This is good sci-fi stuff. But if you don't like sci-fi, you won't like this.


:) Happy days. I'm excited there are more of these books coming.
